Ali (Christina Aguilera), a small-town gal with a great voice, leaves a troubled life behind and follows her dreams to Los Angeles. She lands a job as a cocktail waitress at the Burlesque Lounge, a once-majestic theater that houses an inspired musical revue led by Tess (Cher), the proprietor. Ali vows to perform there and, with the help of a savvy stage manager and a gender-bending host, she makes the leap from bar to stage, helping restore the club's former glory.

Cher and Christina are awe-inspiring. I could not keep my eyes off of the screen. The music made you want to dance and sing along. The story line is not something you have to pay super close attention to follow along with but it is about the music. And the music is unbelievable.

If you enjoy listening to Cher and Christina sing, you will enjoy that part of the movie. I was expecting more of a movie on the level of Chicago (story line wise) and it didn't quite have that much going for it, but I enjoyed parts of it, none the less. I got a little worried over some of the costumes having a wardrobe malfunction and, I plan on buying a box of Famous Amos cookies just to show my appreciate for the art work on the box.
